۱۰۷ : سورة الماعون
SURAH AL-MAA’UN (THE DAILY NECESSITIES)
This surah was revealed in Mecca and it has 7 verses. It is narrated from Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (a.s.) that if a person recites this surah in any of his prayers, then they will be accepted.
The sins of those who recite this surah are forgiven. If recited a hundred times after the Fajr prayers, one remains safe until the next day’s Fajr time. Imam Ja’far as-Sadiq (a.s.) said that if a person recites surah al-Maa’un forty-one times every day, he and his family will remain free from being dependant on others for their sustenance. (It is recommended that salawaat should also be recited after the first and last ten times)
بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
اَرَءَيْتَ الَّذِىْ يُكَذِّبُ بِالدِّيْنِؕ(1)
(1) Have you considered him who calls the Judgement a lie?
(1) کیا تم نے اس شخص کو دیکھا ہے جوقیامت کو جھٹلاتا ہے
فَذٰلِكَ الَّذِىْ يَدُعُّ الْيَتِيْمَۙ(2)
(2) That is the one who treats the orphan with harshness,
(2) یہ وہی ہے جو یتیم کو دھکےّ دیتا ہے
وَ لَا يَحُضُّ عَلٰى طَعَامِ الْمِسْكِيْنِؕ(3)
(3) And does not urge (others) to feed the poor.
(3) اور کسی کو مسکین کے کھانے کے لئے تیار نہیں کرتا ہے
فَوَيْلٌ لِّلْمُصَلِّيْنَۙ(4)
(4) So woe to the praying ones,
(4) تو تباہی ہے ان نمازیوں کے لئے
الَّذِيْنَ هُمْ عَنْ صَلَاتِهِمْ سَاهُوْنَۙ(5)
(5) Who are unmindful of their prayers,
(5) جو اپنی نمازوں سے غافل رہتے ہیں
الَّذِيْنَ هُمْ يُرَآءُوْنَۙ(6)
(6) Who do (good) to be seen,
(6) دکھانے کے لئے عمل کرتے ہیں
وَيَمْنَعُوْنَ الْمَاعُوْنَ(7)
(7) And withhold the necessaries of life.
(7) اور معمولی ظروف بھی عاریت پر دینے سے انکار کردتے ہیں
